X −→ Y Be a Continuous Map of Topological Spaces. We Say That F Is A 16. Maps between manifolds Definition 16.1. Let f : X −! Y be a continuous map of topological spaces. We say that f is a local homeomorphism if for every point x 2 X there is an open neighbourhood U of x such that V = f(U) is open and fjU : U −! V is a homeomorphism. We say that f is an unramified cover if for every point y 2 Y we may find an open neighbourhood V of y, such that the inverse image −1 f (V ) is a disjoint union of open subsets U such that fjU : U −! V is a homeomorphism. Every unramified cover is a local homeomorphism. However: Example 16.2. let Y = C and X = C∗ = C−f0g. Then the inclusion of X into Y is a local homeomorphism but it is not an unramified cover. We will need some basic theory of covering spaces. Definition 16.3. Let f : X −! Y be a continuous map of topological spaces. Let Z be any topological space and let g : Z −! Y be any continuous map. A lift of g to X is a continuous map h: Z −! X such that f ◦ h = g. X - f ? Z - Y In general lifts need neither exist nor are they even unique: Example 16.4. Let f : X = C − f0g −! C = Y be the natural inclusion. Then we cannot lift the identity map g : Y −! Y to X. Example 16.5. Let X and Y be the spaces constructed in (13.2.2). Then there is a natural continuous map f : Y −! X (note that we have switched X and Y , both in terms of (13.2.2) and (16.1)). However the identity map g : X −! X is a continuous map which can be lifted in two different ways. However non-uniqueness is quite pathological: Lemma 16.6. Let f : X −! Y be a local homeomorphism of topologi- cal spaces. Let Z be a connected topological space and let g : Z −! Y be a continuous map. Let hi : Z −! X, i = 1, 2 be any two maps which lift g to X. If X is Hausdorff and there is a point z0 2 Z such that h1(z0) = h2(z0) then h1 = h2. 1 Proof. Let E = f z 2 Z j h1(z) = h2(z) g; be the set of points where h1 and h2 are equal. Then z0 2 E so that E is non-empty by assumption. As X is Hausdorff, the diagonal ∆ ⊂ X ×X is closed. Now E is the inverse image of ∆ by the continuous map h1 × h2 : Z −! X × X, so that E is closed as X is Hausdorff. Suppose that z 2 Z. Let x = hi(z). Then we may find an open neighbourhood U of x and V = f(U) of y = f(x) = g(z), such that fjU : U −! V is a homeomorphism. Since hi are continuous, Wi = −1 hi (U) is open. Let W = W1 \ W2. As f ◦ h1 = g = f ◦ h2; and fjU is injective, W ⊂ E. But then E is open and closed, so that E = Z as Z is connected. Lemma 16.7. Let f : X −! Y be an unramified cover of manifolds. Let γ : [0; 1] −! Y be a path and suppose x 2 X is point of X such that f(x) = y = γ(0). Then γ has a unique lift to a map : [0; 1] −! X; such that (0) = x. Proof. For every point y of the image of γ, we may find a connected −1 open neighbourhood V = Vy ⊂ Y of y such that f (V ) is a disjoint union of open subsets all of which are homeomorphic to V via f. Since the image of γ is compact, we may cover the image by finitely many of these open subsets V1;V2;:::;Vk. Let Wj ⊂ [0; 1] be the inverse image of Vj, and let [ Ij = Wi: i≤j Then Ij is an open subset of [0; 1] which is an interval containing 0. We define j : Ij −! X by induction on j. Suppose that we have defined 0 k, k ≤ j. Pick t 2 Wj \ Wj ⊂ Ii \ Wj+1. Let x = j(t) 2 X (if j = 0 then we take x0 = x). Pick U ⊂ X containing x0 such that U −1 is a connected component of f (Vj+1) which maps homeomorphically down to Vj+1. Then we may clearly extend j to j+1. Uniqueness follows from (16.6). Definition 16.8. Let f : X −! Y be a local homeomorphism. We say that f has the lifting property if given any continuous map γ : [0; 1] −! Y and a point x 2 X such that f(x) = y = γ(0), then we may lift γ to : [0; 1] −! X such that (0) = x. 2 Theorem 16.9. Let f : X −! Y be a local homeomorphism of mani- folds. Then f has the lifting property if and only if f is an unramified cover. We have already shown one direction of (16.9). To prove the other direction we need the following basic result: Theorem 16.10. Let f : X −! Y be a local homeomorphism of mani- folds. Suppose that we have a homotopy G: [0; 1]×[0; 1] −! Y between γ0 and γ1. Suppose also that we can lift γs : [0; 1] −! Y , defined by γs(t) = γ(s; t) to s : [0; 1] −! X. If the function σ : [0; 1] −! X given by σ(s) = s(0) is continuous then we can lift G to a continuous map H : [0; 1] × [0; 1] −! X. Proof. The definition of H : [0; 1] × [0; 1] −! X; 2 is clear; given (s; t) 2 [0; 1] , H(s; t) = s(t). The only thing we need to check is that H is continuous. Note that σ(s) = H(s; 0). Given (s; t) 2 [0; 1]2, let x = H(s; t). Since f is a local homeomor- phism, we may find an open subset U = Us;t such that V = f(U) is −1 open and fjU : U −! V is a homeomorphism. Let W = G (V ). Then W = Ws;t is an open neighbourhood of (s; t), such that H(s; t) 2 U and G(W ) = V . By compactness of [0; 1]2, we may find a finite subcover. It follows that we may subdivide [0; 1]2 into finitely many squares in such a way that each square is mapped by G into an open subset V of Y such that there is an open subset U of X with the property that fjU : U −! V is a homeomorphism and there is a point (s; t) belonging to the square such that H(s; t) 2 U. Suppose that the subdivision is given by k, so that we subdivide each [0; 1] into the intervals [i=k; (i + 1)=k]. By an obvious induction, it suffices to prove that Hj[i=k;(i+1)=k]×[j=k;(j+1)=k]; is continuous, given that σ(t) = H(i=k; t) is continuous. Replacing the square [i=k; (i + 1)=k] × [j=k; (j + 1)=k]; by [0; 1]2 and Y by V , we are reduced to proving that H is continuous, given that there is an open subset U of X which maps homeomorphi- 2 cally down to Y and such that there is a single point (s0; t0) 2 [0; 1] such that H(s0; t0) 2 U. Since fjU : U −! Y is a homeomorphism, we may lift γs0 to a map 0 : [0; 1] −! U. By uniqueness it follows that H(s0; t) 2 U for all t 2 [0; 1]. By uniqueness of the lift of γ, where γ(t) = G(0; t), H(0; t) 2 U 3 for all t 2 [0; 1]. Finally by uniqueness of the lift of γs(t), it follows 2 −1 that H(s; t) 2 U for all (s; t) 2 [0; 1] . But then G = (fjU ) ◦ H is certainly continuous. To prove (16.9), we start with a seemingly special case: Proposition 16.11. Let f : X −! Y be a local homeomorphism of connected manifolds. If f has the lifting property and Y is simply connected then f is an isomorphism. Proof. Pick a 2 X and let b = f(a) 2 Y . Pick y 2 Y . Since Y is a connected manifold it is path connected. Pick a path γ : [0; 1] −! Y such that b = γ(0) and y = γ(1). Let : [0; 1] −! X be a lifting of γ and let x = (1). Then f(x) = y. Thus f is surjective. Suppose that x0, x1 2 X, with y = f(x0) = f(x1). Pick paths i : [0; 1] −! X such that a = i(0) and xi = i(1). Let γi = f ◦ i. As Y is simply connected, we may pick a homotopy G between 0 and 1 fixing y. By (16.10) we may lift G to a continuous function H, such that H(0; 0) = x. Since the function (t) = G(0; t) is continuous, the composition f ◦ is constant (equal to y) and the fibre f −1(y) is discrete, it follows that G(0; t) = x is constant. But then x1 = G(0; 1) = G(0; 0) = x0. Thus f is injective. As f is a local homeomorphism, it follows that f is a homeomor- phism. Proof of (16.9). Suppose that f has the lifting property. Pick y 2 Y and let V be a simply connected neighbourhood of y.

  • Math 5853 Homework Solutions 36. a Map F : X → Y Is Called an Open
    Math 5853 homework solutions 36. A map f : X → Y is called an open map if it takes open sets to open sets, and is called a closed map if it takes closed sets to closed sets. For example, a continuous bijection is a homeomorphism if and only if it is a closed map and an open map. 1. Give examples of continuous maps from R to R that are open but not closed, closed but not open, and neither open nor closed. open but not closed: f(x) = ex is a homeomorphism onto its image (0, ∞) (with the logarithm function as its inverse). If U is open, then f(U) is open in (0, ∞), and since (0, ∞) is open in R, f(U) is open in R. Therefore f is open. However, f(R) = (0, ∞) is not closed, so f is not closed. closed but not open: Constant functions are one example. We will give an example that is also surjective. Let f(x) = 0 for −1 ≤ x ≤ 1, f(x) = x − 1 for x ≥ 1, and f(x) = x+1 for x ≤ −1 (f is continuous by “gluing together on a finite collection of closed sets”). f is not open, since (−1, 1) is open but f((−1, 1)) = {0} is not open. To show that f is closed, let C be any closed subset of R. For n ∈ Z, −1 −1 define In = [n, n + 1]. Now, f (In) = [n + 1, n + 2] if n ≥ 1, f (I0) = [−1, 2], −1 −1 f (I−1) = [−2, 1], and f (In) = [n − 1, n] if n ≤ −2.

  • A Godefroy-Kalton Principle for Free Banach Lattices 3
    A GODEFROY-KALTON PRINCIPLE FOR FREE BANACH LATTICES ANTONIO AVILES,´ GONZALO MART´INEZ-CERVANTES, JOSE´ RODR´IGUEZ, AND PEDRO TRADACETE Abstract. Motivated by the Lipschitz-lifting property of Banach spaces introduced by Godefroy and Kalton, we consider the lattice-lifting property, which is an analogous notion within the category of Ba- nach lattices and lattice homomorphisms. Namely, a Banach lattice X satisfies the lattice-lifting property if every lattice homomorphism to X having a bounded linear right-inverse must have a lattice homomor- phism right-inverse. In terms of free Banach lattices, this can be rephrased into the following question: which Banach lattices embed into the free Banach lattice which they generate as a lattice-complemented sublattice? We will provide necessary conditions for a Banach lattice to have the lattice-lifting property, and show that this property is shared by Banach spaces with a 1-unconditional basis as well as free Banach lattices. The case of C(K) spaces will also be analyzed. 1. Introduction In a fundamental paper concerning the Lipschitz structure of Banach spaces, G. Godefroy and N.J. Kalton introduced the Lipschitz-lifting property of a Banach space. In order to properly introduce this notion, and as a motivation for our work, let us recall the basic ingredients for this construction (see [9] for details). Given a Banach space E, let Lip0(E) denote the Banach space of all real-valued Lipschitz functions on E which vanish at 0, equipped with the norm |f(x) − f(y)| kfk = sup : x, y ∈ E, x 6= y . Lip0(E) kx − yk E The Lipschitz-free space over E, denoted by F(E), is the canonical predual of Lip0(E), that is the closed ∗ linear span of the evaluation functionals δ(x) ∈ Lip0(E) given by hδ(x),fi = f(x) for all x ∈ E and all f ∈ Lip0(E).

  • Lecture 11 Last Lecture We Defined Connections on Fiber Bundles. This Lecture We Will Attempt to Explain What a Connection Does
    Lecture 11 Last lecture we defined connections on fiber bundles. This lecture we will attempt to explain what a connection does for differential ge- ometers. We start with two basic concepts from algebraic topology. The first is that of homotopy lifting property. Let us recall: Definition 1. Let π : E → B be a continuous map and X a space. We say that (X, π) satisfies homotopy lifting property if for every H : X × I → B and map f : X → E with π ◦ f = H( , 0) there exists a homotopy F : X × I → E starting at f such that π ◦ F = H. If ({∗}, π) satisfies this property then we say that π has the homotopy lifting property for a point. Now, as is well known and easily proven, every fiber bundle satisfies the homotopy lifting property. A much stronger property is the notion of a covering space (which we will not recall with precision). Here we have the homotopy lifting property for a point plus uniqueness or the unique path lifting property. I.e. there is exactly one lift of a given path in the base starting at a specified point in the total space. The point of a connection is to take the ambiguity out of the homotopy lifting property for X = {∗} and force a fiber bundle to satisfy the unique path lifting property. We will see many conceptual advantages of this uniqueness, but let us start by making this a bit clearer via parallel transport. Definition 2. Let B be a topological space and PB the category whose objects are points of B and whose morphisms are defined via {γ : → B : ∃ c, d ∈ s.t.

We prove only the first of its two statements here. This part of the theorem will then be used in the sequel, and the proof of the second statement will follow from the results obtained in the next section. We will be careful to avoid circular reasoning. The utility of the theorem will soon become obvious as we repeatedly use its statement to produce maps having very specific properties. However, the true power of the theorem is not unveiled until x 5, where we show how it leads to a mutual characterisation of cofibrations and fibrations in terms of an orthogonality relation. Theorem 1.1 Let j : A,! X be a closed cofibration and p : E ! B a fibration.

A Grothendieck topology T consists of a collec- tion of subfunctors R ⊂ hom( ;U); U 2 C ; called covering sieves, such that the following hold: 1) (base change) If R ⊂ hom( ;U) is covering and f : V !

  • Rational Homotopy Theory - Lecture 7
    Rational Homotopy Theory - Lecture 7 BENJAMIN ANTIEAU 1. Model categories Much of this section is borrowed from a forthcoming expository article I am writing with Elden Elmanto on A1-homotopy theory. Model categories are a technical framework for working up to homotopy. The axioms guarantee that certain category-theoretic localizations exist without enlarging the universe and that it is possible in some sense to compute the hom-sets in the localization. The theory generalizes the use of projective or injective resolutions in the construction of derived categories of rings or schemes. References for this material include Quillen's original book on the theory [4], Dwyer- Spalinski [1], Goerss-Jardine [2], and Goerss-Schemmerhorn [3]. For consistency, we refer the reader where possible to [2]. However, unlike some of these references, we assume that the category underlying M has all small limits and colimits. This is satisfied immediately in all cases of interest to us. Definition 1.1. Let M be a category with all small limits and colimits. A model cat- egory structure on M consists of three classes W; C; F of morphisms in M, called weak equivalences, cofibrations, and fibrations, subject to the following set of axioms. f g M1 Given X −! Y −! Z two composable morphisms in M, if any two of g ◦ f, f, and g are weak equivalences, then so is the third. M2 Each class W; C; F is closed under retracts. M3 Given a diagram / Z > E i p X / B of solid arrows, a dotted arrow can be found making the diagram commutative if either (a) p is an acyclic fibration (p 2 W \ F ) and i is a cofibration, or (b) i is an acyclic cofibration (i 2 W \ C) and p is a fibration.
